We reviewed the elements and organization of the rhetorical analysis essay during today's session, I outlined on the board: 1.elements in the introduction -exigence, occasion , purpose and audience and focused the need for the essay to explain how the writer's rhetorical choices are crafted to the audience.2.Rhetorical choices made by writers- diction ( metaphor, connotation, allusion tone), syntax, line of reasoning , punctuation and 3. How the foregoing are all intertwined with pathos, ethos, and logos. Matthew took notes on the foregoing and will use them as an outline for completing his essay on the rhetorical choices made by the Prime Minister of New Zealand in her speech in the aftermath of a terrorist attack.
